What moves the price
Where your quantity sits against the 1/5/10/25/50/100/250/500/1000/2500/5000/10000 break points (just under a break is the expensive place to be) Materials and specification of the item Quantity and where it falls against a vendor's price breaks Finishing, customization, or add-on services Check before signing
Setup or one-time fees charged per unit or repeated on reorders A specification quietly changed from what you asked for Rush surcharges applied to a standard timeline Line items bundled into a single total so individual prices can't be compared Negotiation levers
Standardize the specification so vendors quote like-for-like Consolidate volume or designs to share fixed costs Offer schedule flexibility in exchange for a better rate About 11 oz. white ceramic mug w/full color sublimation pricing
Priced per unit with quantity breaks. Vendors quote steps at 1 / 5 / 10 / 25 / 50 / 100 / 250 / 500 / 1000 / 2500 / 5000 / 10000 units, and the per-unit rate drops at each break.
Why do two quotes for the same item differ so much? Usually a specification or finishing difference, not the core work. Ask both vendors to quote the identical spec and the gap normally narrows.
Tracked variants
The same product family is tracked in 16oz stock, 12oz stock, 15oz stock. Quotes are NOT interchangeable across variants, so match the spec before comparing.
